Popis: The carrier induced refractive-index change Δn in integrated InGaAsP 1.30 μm interferometer structures is evaluated by 1.55 μm transmission measurements. At carrier concentration N from 8×10 16 /cm 3 to 3×10 18 /cm 3 a value of Δn/N=-1×10 -20 cm 3 is obtained. A good agreement of the experimental results with theoretical predictions on bandfilling, plasma effect and bandgap shrinkage is demonstrated
